A dashboard/launcher/control-panel thing for Wayland. Requires wlr-layer-shell-unstable-v1.
Consider this alpha-quality: While it works, everything is subject to change with a moments notice. You may end up pulling in the latest changes, and poof, wldash suddenly turns into an artisan espresso machine.
- Checkout:
git clone https://github.com/kennylevinsen/wldash - Build:
cargo build --release - Put somewhere:
cp target/release/wldash /usr/local/bin/wldash - Run:
wldash
To see the default configuration, run wldash print-config. To configure, place a file in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/wldash/config.yaml (or if XDG_CONFIG_HOME is not set, ~/.config/wldash/config.yaml). JSON is also currently supported.
Notable settings: outptuMode can be active or all, scale can be set to 2 to half the buffer size, and the widgets (and their layout) can be configured.
For more info, look in src/config.rs.
dbus. See https://github.com/diwic/dbus-rs#requirements.
The launcher for wldash is built-in, based on https://github.com/kennylevinsen/dot-desktop. Pluggable systems may come back in the future.
The environment variables XDG_DATA_DIRS and XDG_DATA_HOME are read to find the many applications folders that contain desktop files.
